I installed the KRD Complete V6 Cat-Back System it sounds great, along with some headers, but i have a problem. when installing it i had to put the rear emissions box into my spare tire area. by doing that i flipped the box. now the problem, when i go to fuel my car is sending signals to the pump that my car is full. so i gotta sit out there and work the handle to fill up my car, not fun. any idea's out there?

i dont think your car sends signals to the pump that it is getting full. i always thought that the pump nozzle detects splash back, then stops. could you flip the box back?

Word, there is no communication between a car and a gas pump mang, it all deals with splashback or fumes.

Welcome to the site, even though your stay is probably short lived.

yes most definitely.. been through that ordeal a million times with my 2000 tib... total pain in the ass... sometimes the thing will click off about 3 quarters of the way full and i think it is full... only then to find out that it isnt and i only have 3/4 a tank of gas
